- BAKING SODA: Ultimate Pest Control For FLEAS, MICE, RATS, COCKROACHES, ANTS, BEDBUGS, CENTIPEDES...
Whether you use it for baking delicious desserts or making homemade cleaning products, baking soda is a common household staple.
However, Baking Soda has another helpful use, it is a popular DIY solution for pest control.
After all, it’s cheap, it’s readily available, it’s non-toxic, and it’s present in just about every home kitchen.
For some pests, this powder is lethal, while for others, it is merely a deterrent.
If your garden or home is overrun by a specific type of critter, discover if baking soda could be an effective repellent and how to use it to keep them out of your space.
1.
Fleas. In case you're ever wondering whether it is possible to get rid of fleas with baking soda, then the answer is yes!
For this flea home remedy to work, sprinkle baking soda on your carpets and furniture, then take a hard brush and rub it into the fabric.
After that vacuum your home thoroughly and empty the contents of the vacuum into a bag and place in an outside bin .
Baking soda dehydrates and kills flea larvae and eggs, preventing the outbreak from growing out of control.
2.
Mice & Rats. No one wants to have rats and mice in their home, and there are many popular methods of dealing with them.
Many people turn to baking soda as their first option.
Start by mixing a cup of cornmeal with either a cup of powdered chocolate mix or sugar.
Next, Add in one cup of baking soda and blend in well.
To make rodent traps, Fill jars with the bait mixture until they are about half full.
Place the jars in the areas where the rodents frequent.
This homemade rat poison attracts the rats with the chocolate or sugar and kills them with the baking soda.
The baking soda creates carbon dioxide gas when it reacts with the stomach acids of the rodent.
Rats cannot pass gas, so the carbon dioxide has nowhere to go and eventually leads to ruptures or internal blockages.
3. cockroaches. Baking soda has many uses around the home, and it also can be used to kill cockroaches.
However, the insects need to actually ingest the baking soda for it to be effective.
Once consumed, the baking soda mixed with acid and any water in the roaches’ stomachs will react and build up pressure that eventually kills the insects.
It may be effective in killing roaches, but baking soda isn’t naturally attractive to the insects.
If you’re going to use baking soda to solve your roach problem, you’ll need to mix the baking soda with something else to encourage roaches to eat it. Cockroaches are attracted to sugary and starchy foods, not baking soda.
The best thing to mix with baking soda to create a trap is sugar.
Combine equal parts sugar and baking soda in a small bowl and then sprinkle it in corners near your kitchen or other parts of your home where you’ve spotted the roaches.
The sugary smell will attract roaches to the mixture and lead them to eat it. Once they’ve ingested the mixture, all there’s left to do is wait for the baking soda to react inside the roaches.
Unlike chemical insecticides, baking soda is not an immediate solution for roaches.
It should take about 12 to 24 hours for roaches to die after consuming the baking soda mixture.
The timing may vary depending on how much baking soda was ingested and how much water the roaches have consumed.
To ensure you’ve gotten every last roach in your home, continue to sprinkle the mixture around your home for a few days until you don’t see any more live roaches scurrying about.
4.
Ants. You can use baking soda to keep ants out of your home or to kill the ones that have set up on your property. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
A metal bowl, hot soapy dish water...desk lamp near it...leave on in a room with other lights off...all the fleas will jump in 😊
Awesome info!!!❤ Thanks dearly!!!
Thank You For This Informative Video.
For rats, another thing that works is using cement powder or Plaster of Paris dry powder and mix that in with sugar or peanut butter powder.
Thank you very much I didn't know that this is working but anyway I will try it nextime
❤
Oh thankyou very much for that ohk see you bye love it
Borax works great for getting rid of fleas too.
I see people saying antifreeze and cement powder. No! Cruel and you cannot take the chance around pets. It’s not worth it.
Anti Freeze. But keep well away from Domestic Pets..
Diatomaceous earth helps too
⬆️ yes!
Silica sprinkled on as well as part of fertilizer makes plant leaves taste bad to caterpillars
Does NOT work on BedBugs. And that's a Tick not a BedBug.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed 😂😅
Will that work on head lice
If your scalp can handle Lysol or Mr clean, that will work on head lice. My hair is long and I had six kids. It worked on mine and on my kids head. The only downfall is it makes your hair very dry. Strongly suggest a skin test and then heavy conditioner. That is what I do. If you dye your hair it doesn't matter if you use head lice shampoo or what I mentioned it will actually strip the color. But it works. Don't let it get in your eyes and yes there is a way to do it. A shower cap is a must.
No help against black ants. Aha, I need to get some confectioner sugar
Corn starch!
What about spiders ? In our basement hate them
I use straight up spray to keep them away! Spectricide Bug be gone.. Whenever I spray I don't see any for 6 months at a time.
I live in WV. We have the huge Wolf Spiders. So I don't compromise when it comes to using chemicals when it comes to keeping them away! Lol
10 legs.. impossible
I really didn’t appreciate those close-up shots of those nasty insects!😖
Same lol
Don't ever watch the show called Infested 😳😬
@@jxn1056 ha haha, duly noted.
